an utterly romantic escape
true grandeur special moment charming detail
this building possesses true grandeur. the hotel is fine, filled with historical significance. i appreciated the friendly staff, each ready with a smile. their attentiveness makes every moment special, a detail i found particularly charming.
the kioku bar, with its extensive sake selection, poured tonic from a large plastic bottle, a slight contrast to the bar's otherwise upscale presentation. it is a minor detail, though it caught my eye.
Facilities
10/10
The pool area offers a serene experience, with twenty comfortable loungers with soft cushions and a shaded section for those seeking respite from the sun. It is an oasis of calm. guests can also enjoy adjacent spa facilities.

really good stay
helpful staff quick accommodation great location close attractions
the staff was helpful and quickly accommodated us. we were allowed to have our room in the morning so we did not have to wait for check in time. the hotel is in a great location close to many attractions
i would prefer my tonic out of my own bottle. it would allow me to dictate the amount poured. the large plastic bottle did not quite fit with the image.

Excellent Stay!
delicious sandwich unique detail helpful staff
I savored a delicious afternoon tea in the Drawing Room recently. Traditional and vegan sandwiches was very good. Avocado and chicken were standouts! Tea timers added a unique detail enhancing the afternoon experience. The wood-paneled Drawing Room offered intimate views of historic Whitehall. I appreciated the helpful staff who warmly chatted about the Grade II listed building.
I encountered a minor inconvenience . I found no readily available spot to sit, read, and relax apart from restaurants and bars. I had to stay in my room to relax after my day.
Dining

I dined at Papermoon and found the staff cute. Starters included pea soup and fried anchovies with mozzarella. I enjoyed the lamb. The lemon, passionfruit and meringue tart was light.
Location

The hotel is near many attractions. Buckingham Palace is a short walk away. The hotel's street connects Westminster to Trafalgar Square, and it's easy to get to Soho for theaters. I appreciated the central situation.
